    Postol won this 115-111.

    Go watch it again. The crowd influenced things, cheering for shorts that never even connected. Apart from the flash knockdowns, Crawford was missing almost everything and being countered. The commentators skewed your judgement.

    Kovalev is 10x better than Postol too. But Ward is much better than Crawford.

    I think it will be a closer fight.

    Postol won pretty comfortably and got robbed.

      Ward is not as gifted or athletic as Crawford is as a slick boxer. Ward makes his money by being crafty on the inside. He may be able to impliment a fight plan similar to Crawford's, but it won't work. Kovalev is too good at moving in and out. Postol wasn't even aggressive. He was afraid to get countered. Kovalev will jump back and forth, reset, throw a short right hand followed by a long jab. Jump back reset feint to the head, throw a jab to the body, etc. He is a lot smarter with his attack, even if it consists mostly of 1-2's.

      Kovalev has the Euro style with some sickness mixed in because of who is trainer is.
